Hofstadter generator for Golang CLIs

hofmod-cli's Issues

Go embed several types of files

• Long help as Go embed
• command examples as txtar files, also embed
• topics & tutorials too

always generates update and version subcommands

I'm explicitly setting the schema fields to false:

#CLI: schema.#Cli & {
	Name: "test"
	Package: "example.com/test/test/cmd/test"
	Short: "a test"

	CompletionCommands: false
	Updates: false
	
    OmitRun: false

	Pflags: [...schema.#Flag] & [{
		Name: "test"
		Long: "test"
		Short: "t"
		Type: "string"
		Default: ""
		Help: "test test test"
	}]

	// Commands: []
}

and while they are not added to the Cmd in root.go the actual commands still get generated:

cmd/test
├── cmd
│  ├── completions.go
│  ├── hls
│  │  └── cli
│  │     └── root
│  │        └── help.hls
│  ├── root.go
│  ├── root_test.go
│  ├── update.go
│  └── version.go
├── flags
│  └── root.go
├── main.go
└── verinfo
   └── verinfo.go

which makes the build fail like this:

building go files...
go build -o test ./cmd/test
go: finding module for package example.com/test/test/cmd/test/ga
cmd/test/cmd/completions.go:8:2: cannot find module providing package example.com/test/test/cmd/test/ga: module example.com/test/test/cmd/test/ga: git ls-remote -q origin in /home/user/go/pkg/mod/cache/vcs/BLAAAAAAAAAA: exit status 128:

Manage multiple versions of the same application

• install versions with suffix
• copy current to suffixless
• ? create a place to install all "vendor" tools

(vendor here means we should start adding a level of hierarchy for vendor/company -> tools / projects / configs / etc)

Configs and Secrets

Add support for [config,secret] X [global, local] files / dirs.

Support deeper nesting of subcommands

Need more paired entries like:

• https://github.com/hof-lang/cuemod--cli-golang/blob/master/module.cue#L40
• https://github.com/hof-lang/cuemod--cli-golang/blob/master/module.cue#L42

Fix Topics / Subjects

• Make sure these actually work
• move to own directory
• formatting options?

FlagPole updates

• Docs strings, default to help & flag default
• DeaultFlagPole func for when not using via CLI

Update for GoReleaser v1

also incorp Cosign

Version command

add a default included version command that integrates with goreleaser variables

cobra/completions

Cobra needs to be updated too

https://github.com/spf13/cobra/blob/master/shell_completions.md#bash-completion-v2

generated "rest" args will panic when the extra arg is not present

This below was generated from, not sure why the rest is there? I think we use it to pass remaining args to the template, but where is the config? Did I put this in manually?

#CreateCommand: schema.#Command & {
	Name:  "create"
	Usage: "create <module location>"
	Short: "dynamic blueprints from any git repo"
	Long:  #CreateRootHelp

	Args: [{
		Name: "module"
		Type: "string"
		Required: false
		Help: "git repository or directory with a creator, accepts subdirs on both"
	}]

	Run: func(cmd *cobra.Command, args []string) {
		var err error

		// Argument Parsing

		var module string

		if 0 < len(args) {

			module = args[0]

		}

		err = CreateRun(module, args[1:])
		if err != nil {
			fmt.Println(err)
			os.Exit(1)
		}
	},

Support flags which can be specified multiple times

Cobra does it...

Make feedback work

• implement feedback command
• sending options
  • email
  • api
  • services?
• capturing recent commands?
• run editor are accept file as input

Support goreleaser

Add necessary parts to support Goreleaser

• schema
• template
• gen config
